    Summary

    That’s because he’s my boyfriend, Mike!” Will shouts.

    “And us?” Mike presses, a sick sense of deja vu creeping coldly over his brain.

    Will exhales sharply, “We’re friends. We’re friends! You made sure of that. So I don’t know why you’re so mad at me!”

    “Because it was supposed to be me!

    Will blinks, “What are you talking about?”

    “I’m mad because it was supposed to be me!” Mike shouts it desperately, like a plea, like this is making him go crazy, and fuck, maybe it is, “After everything—at the end—it was meant to be me. Not him. I don’t want it to be him. I want it to be me.

    Or, Mike doesn't realize his own feelings, until Will's are staring him dead in the face. Vecna's gone, they're nearing the end of their senior year, and all of a sudden Will has a boyfriend. Everything goes downhill pretty quickly from there.

    Summary

    “That’s not my favorite.”

    “Oh.” Will blinks. “What is?”

    Mike’s tongue darts out to wet his lower lip. “O negative.” Will feels a flush move across his entire body. His magic hums inside of him, excited. His fingers twitch against the carton. Maybe Will was wrong, maybe this is different than having a favorite kind of pizza. More personal. O negative sits differently in Will’s head than double black olives with extra cheese does. More intimate.

    “Oh.” Will blinks again. And maybe O negative sits differently in Will’s head, because it also flows through his veins. He feels obligated to tell Mike. “I’m O negative.”

    Mike’s pupils widen again. “I know.” His voice is low, gravelly.

    Will’s breath hitches again. “You know?” He flinches when Mike’s fingers graze his, peeling the carton out of Will’s hand.

    Mike takes a deep breath. “I can smell it.”

    Or, five times that Will offered Mike his blood and the one time that Mike accepted.

    Summary

    It’d been a week since the military flooded the small town of Hawkins, the government eager to cover up the upcoming news reports and literal cracks. While people started to fleet the town, the core group remained in place, the Byers even settled in with the Wheelers.

    However, right when their guard is finally let down, Mike Wheeler goes missing.

    Summary

    Will was weeping openly. “And the worst of it,” he whispered, his voice breaking as he forced up a fourth and final finger. He looked at it as if it were a silver-tipped weapon pointed at his own heart. “The very worst of it… is that I would be the author of it. I would be the hand that stops your heart. The mouth that poisons you. Every moment of suffering you ever felt thereafter — every pang of monstrous hunger, every flinch from a memory of sunlight, every tear you shed for the life you lost — would be born of my creation. I would have to look at you, forever, and see my greatest crime wearing your face, speaking with your voice. I cannot… I cannot bear that, Michael.”

    He sank to his knees then, defeated. He knelt on the cold floorboards, naked and shivering, his face in his hands. “So don’t ask me,” he begged, his words muffled and wet. “However much you love me, however little you fear the dark… have mercy on me. Don’t ask me to damn you.”

     

    OR: Mike moves into an old house in the early 1800s, and ends up accidentally living with Vampire Will. They fall in love.
